About this experience

SeaWorld Abu Dhabi opened on Yas Island as the first SeaWorld built outside the United States and the first designed without orcas. It spans eight realms across five levels, arranged around One Ocean, a 25 million litre aquarium holding more than 68,000 animals.

The realms move from the Arctic and Antarctica, with beluga whales, walruses and penguins, through tropical Micro Ocean exhibits to Abu Dhabi Ocean, which focuses on Arabian Gulf species. The site also houses a research and rescue centre. It is a walk-through marine park rather than a ride park, though there are a small number of family attractions.
